### Describe the enhancement requested Hey, Currently when you call `CommandGetTables` with `include_schema = true` the message you get in return contains schemas, and each field on these schemas may contain couple of different metadata properties: type name, scale, precision, etc. What's missing is column remarks/comment/description -- for example, when you use [JDBC to retrieve columns for particular table(s)](https://docs.oracle.com/javase/8/docs/api/java/sql/DatabaseMetaData.html#getColumns-java.lang.String-java.lang.String-java.lang.String-java.lang.String-) the API allows the drivers/databases to return remarks in the `REMARKS` column of the result set. Would it be possible to add a `ARROW:FLIGHT:SQL:REMARKS` metadata property to the `CommandGetTables` contract to allow retrieving column descriptions? ### Component(s) Format -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
